Task 5: Setting Term Based Relationships

  • Article

In this task, you define a few term-based relations for values for the Supplier Name domain. A term-based relation enables you to make a correction to a term that is part of a value in a domain. It enables multiple values that are identical except for the spelling of a common part of them to be considered identical synonyms. For example, Inc. can be corrected to Incorporated. DQS uses these relations in the knowledge discovery, cleansing, or matching processes. See Create Term-based Relations for more details.

  1. Select Supplier Name in the Domain list.

  2. Switch to the Term-Based Relationships tab in the right pane.

  3. Click Add new relation button on the toolbar to add a relation to the table.

  4. Type Co. for the Value field and Company for the Correct To field.

  5. Repeat the previous two steps for the following values:

    Value

    Correct To

    Corp.
